Muck, Mess and Mixtures 6.11.17

The Penguins and Puffins have started to look at different materials such as salt, bicarbonate of soda, cornflour, glitter, cooking oil and rice.Β  The spent some time observing closely the different ingredients, thinking what they might be before then predicting what they thought would happen to each one if it was mixed with water.Β  Some thought the oil would change colour, the cornflour would disappear and the glitter would float.Β  One even said that he thought that the bicarbonate of soda would fizz.

We have also been reading George’s Marvellous Medicine and talking about some fantastic vocabulary alongside the rather horrible things that Grandma liked to eat!

    Well done all.
